Noob question here!, who's gonna answer it first
I have two physical disk drives in my HDA.
one small 250GB notebook disk, should be root/boot drive
and one samsung 2TB, storage disk
I thought I had installed my hda root/boot on the notebook disk, but now i begin to doubt it.
If I look in the amahi dash in the storage tab, it has one partition of 2TB called '/'. No more. If I the click in that tab on 'disks' I see the two disks the Samsung 2TB sda, and the notebook disk sdb.
Can I conclude from this that I did something wrong? Or can I check it any other way (like in the terminal for example??)
Thanks
(ps follow up questions: If I did it wrong, how? and how to fix it:))
On which drive is my root
Re: On which drive is my root
the 2TB disk is your / (root) disk
Linux "numbers" drives like this: /dev/sda for the first, /dev/sdb for the second, /dev/sdc for the third and so on.
Whichever way you look at it, moving to a different drive means reinstall. The easiest way is to disconnect the 2TB disk, install everything on your 250GB disk and when done connect the 2TB disk. You can add it to your Greyhole pool later.

Re: On which drive is my root
Hahaha,
Nothing to do about it, I was afraid for it. Not sure how it happened because I selected the smaller drive during fedora install...?
Anyway,..
When reinstalling, and adding the 2TB disk after the initial install on the notebook disk, will that not cause problems that there is already data on that second disk?
So If I have it right, first install with only the notebook drive plugged in, then after everything is working follow this guide:
http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Adding_ ... o_your_HDA
for the second disk, adding it and enabling the greyhole pool
And after that, if everything is working add a possible third disk using the same guide.
Thanks you for your reply Moredruid.

Re: On which drive is my root
yup, that's correct.
you can format the 2TB disk (on another system if you prefer) before adding it if you want to make sure it's clean.
